Overview:

First Army renewed its attack towards Saint Lo. In this area of bocage and sunken roads, observation was poor. Coordination of indirect fire and air strikes was difficult. Theerfore, the possession of the low hills was essential for a successful attack on Saint Lo. Hill 192 in the 2nd Infantry Division sector was one such feature. The 38th Infantry Regiment was tasked with seizing Hill 192. First Battalion attacked on the left while Second Battalion assaulted the western slope, sending Company E to clear the small village of Cloville. The Germans had positioned a PzIV and a Nashorn in rubble created by U.S. air strikes and artillery fire. As the Americans approached, stubborn fallschirmjaegers greeted them with automatic weapons fire.
Attacker: American (Company E, 2nd Battalion, 38th Infantry Regiment, and 741st Tank Battalion, 2nd Infantry Division)
Defender: German (Abteilung 3, Fallschirmjaeger Regiment 9, Fallschirmjaeger Division 3)

2022-03-26(A) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best American winThe Americans moved cautiously from the north and the west. Willy Pete was fired into two German locations as the Americans moved towards the village center. The Americans had made good progress up to turn 4 and then the German 5-4-8 went berserk and was eliminated. This allowed the Americans to send infantry to the side and rear of the Hornet. Then two Shermans charged it. One Sherman was knocked out and in Advancing Fire, the US Bazooka knocked out the Hornet. By Turn 5, the Germans were down to just the 7-0 and MKIV. The MKIV MALF'd its MA in Intensive Fire and that was game and an American victory.
